I haven't written the one yet about getting intestinal parasites. The memories are too painful.

Lots of borderline heretical religious opinions are explored on this site. (I totally despise the influence of politics in religion and vice-versa.) Here's a representative sample called "Teaching Truth As Fact". Here's a rant brought forth by Fox News Commentator Cal Thomas claiming that Barack Obama isn't a Christian.If you make it that far, you may wonder if The Whos Really Can Hear Horton.(If you found these posts even remotely interesting, opinions like these are tolerated every Sunday morning at 9:30 in room 306 at Broadway Baptist Church, just south of downtown Fort Worth. I'm in a class called "Exploring The Christian Faith". We have Deists, Theists, Apostates, and even a few traditional Baptists who meet there. If you think you've given up on the Christian Church, come give us a try. Sometime around Thanksgiving, we'll begin reading Why Christianity Must Change Or Die by John Shelby Spong. Great stuff.)

I run the shipping/freight operation for a Fort Worth manufacturing company. We have a safety consultant. One night I started wondering what would happen if jihadist martyrs had safety consultants. This is the result. I hope you enjoy it. Our safety consultant didn't.

One of the fundamentals of libertarianism is a respect for basic Human Rights. Here's my post for "Blog For Human Rights Day". It's the only thing you'll ever read that combines Norman Rockwell paintings with atrocity photographs.

Here's a test you can take on the subject of Global Warming. When you're finished with that, hit the label at the bottom for Al Gore. I'm obsessed with the guy, and my friend Dr. Ralph thinks I need to find a new boogeyman. But read this one about America's Richest Vice President. (Hint: it's not Nelson Rockefeller.)

Brent Rinehart, an Oklahoma County Roads supervisor, recently mailed out a gay-bashing campaign comic book to the voters in his district. It's one of the most wonderful things I've ever seen, and I don't mean that as a compliment.

Aurora - What an incredibly weak argument for Christianity, "it's popular, therefore it must be good and true!" That's like saying American Idol is quality television just because so many idiots watch it. Or the National Enquirer is a pillar of journalistic integrity because of it's wide circulation.

Sweet Jesus, give me a break!

Try reading Thomas Paine's "Age of Reason" for a really good take on Christianity.

Thanks for the links WS, I've read some of your post, but finally got all the goodies you offer.

Religions evolve Aurora, want me to send you a well researched paper I wrote a semester ago about this subject? Actually, I think I'll write a post about how a church can actually challenge itself without all those tricky words like 'evolve' 'adapt' and 'gradual cumulative selection'. I know those words make you cringe ;)

I will never understand the people who send the, "Why are you such an idiot" comments. I do not the mind the, "I disagree, here's why" comment, but I wonder what kind of person feels the need to call out the blogger for having an opinion and a life that matches the opinion.

My reply to my last name caller was to give him my phone number so that we could arrange for a time for him to call me out in person. Haven't heard from him since.
